I am not that interested in the first five years, if that is all that is on offer. I believe in compounding and foundation building. If you are living hand-to-mouth, neither of those factors are relevant. If you are simply being paid for the work you do, and that gets consumed. Money is made in containers. If you help build a container, you want to have a stake in that container. Ownership. The kind that exists beyond you. Real wealth is created over the long term. Through owning the container. Through owning the barriers to entry. Even fifteen years is short. Compounding is just starting to kick in. We judge ourselves over short periods like months, quarters, and years. What is your 100-year plan? What is your 1,000-year plan? What is your plan that has nothing to do with you?
